Castles Home Service is California's natural stone cleaning and restoration authority, serving homeowners and commercial properties across the state for more than 40 years. From the Monterey Peninsula to Silicon Valley, the Central Coast to the East Bay, we bring master-level expertise in marble polishing, granite restoration, travertine refinishing, and tile & grout repair to every job. Whether you have a single etched marble countertop or an entire showroom floor in need of attention, we have the tools, the materials, and the 43+ years of California-specific experience to restore your stone to its original beauty.

We specialize exclusively in natural stone. That focus matters, because stone restoration isn't something a general contractor or janitorial service can do well — it requires trained technicians, diamond abrasives, specialty sealers, and an eye for how each stone type (marble, granite, travertine, limestone, slate, onyx, and sandstone) responds to restoration work. Everything we do is dustless, safe around children and pets, and backed by a satisfaction guarantee.

Why California Stone Needs Specialized Care

Stone surfaces in California face a unique combination of challenges that don't exist in other parts of the country. Coastal homes in Monterey, Carmel, and Big Sur deal with salt air and humidity that can dull marble and erode travertine over time. Bay Area and Silicon Valley homes often have hard water that leaves mineral deposits on stone showers, kitchens, and vanities. Central Valley heat cycles put stress on outdoor stone installations. And across the state, California's hard water frequently accelerates etching on acid-sensitive stones like marble and limestone.

On top of environmental factors, California homeowners tend to invest in premium stone — Calacatta marble, Carrara, exotic granite slabs, travertine pavers, and fine limestone — where replacement isn't an option and proper restoration is the only path forward. That's where we come in. We've been restoring California's finest stone installations since 1982, and our expertise covers every condition we've ever encountered.

Central Coast Service Area

Our Central Coast region spans the Monterey Bay and includes some of California's most prestigious stone installations. We've been restoring stone in the Monterey and Pacific Grove area since day one, and our expertise extends up and down the coast. Whether it's restoring marble floors in a Carmel estate, handling travertine in a Carmel Valley property, or servicing a Big Sur home's fireplace surround, we know the specific environmental challenges that coastal stone faces.

Silicon Valley & South Bay Service Area

Silicon Valley and the South Bay are home to some of the most beautiful residential stone installations in the country. From contemporary marble kitchens in Cupertino to traditional granite in San Jose, we've serviced Silicon Valley homes for decades. We understand the premium materials commonly used in Bay Area construction — Calacatta, Carrara, Statuario, exotic granites, and specialty travertine — and we restore them to their original showroom condition.

San Francisco Peninsula Service Area

The Peninsula is home to many of California's most valuable stone installations, and our team has been trusted by homeowners in Atherton, Palo Alto, Menlo Park, and Woodside for high-end marble, granite, and travertine restoration. We work with estate managers, property stewards, and homeowners to deliver results that meet the exacting standards of Peninsula properties.

East Bay & North Bay Service Area

We also service the East Bay and parts of the North Bay, bringing the same level of expertise to stone installations in Dublin and up into San Rafael. Our technicians travel regularly throughout these areas for stone restoration, cleaning, and sealing projects.

Types of Natural Stone We Restore

Every stone type has its own personality, and successful restoration starts with knowing exactly what you're working with. Our technicians are experienced with all of the major natural stone types found in California homes and commercial properties:

Marble — Including Calacatta, Carrara, Statuario, and Emperador. The most common stone we restore, marble is beautiful but acid-sensitive and prone to etching.
Granite — Durable and relatively low-maintenance, but still benefits from periodic sealing and polish restoration.
Travertine — Common in California pools, patios, and showers. Requires specialized filling, honing, and sealing.
Limestone — Similar to marble in acid-sensitivity, limestone needs expert restoration to maintain its natural character.
Slate — Often used in entryways, fireplaces, and patios. We clean, seal, and enhance slate to bring out its natural color and texture.
Onyx — A premium, translucent stone that requires delicate restoration techniques to preserve its unique qualities.
Sandstone — Porous and susceptible to staining, sandstone benefits from regular cleaning and proper sealing.
